Again, you don't need the onion address of your full node, but of your Electrum server. To do this you need to run an Electrum server and as far as I understand, you don't. Check spesmilo's "How To" (https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum-server/blob/master/HOWTO.md). If that seems difficult and you're using RPi, pick a full node OS, such as Umbrel (https://getumbrel.com/) or Raspibolt (https://raspibolt.org/).If you don't have a RPi neither you think you're confident in your technical skills, consider buying one. It's cheap (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5364742.msg58135909#msg58135909) and you don't have to mess with things you don't understand well.

Your information is outdated. It is (and has been since 22.0) possible to have Bitcoin Core connect directly to various hardware wallets.Again, you don't need the onion address of your full node, but of your Electrum server. To do this you need to run an Electrum server and as far as I understand, you don't. Check spesmilo's "How To" (https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum-server/blob/master/HOWTO.md). If that seems difficult and you're using RPi, pick a full node OS, such as Umbrel (https://getumbrel.com/) or Raspibolt (https://raspibolt.org/). It sounds like they want to run their own Electrum server, not connect Electrum to a server.If you don't have a RPi neither you think you're confident in your technical skills, consider buying one.

Two things i need help with from bitcoin experts please: Download the HWI Mac binary from https://github.com/bitcoin-core/HWI/releases and extract it to some place. Remember the full path to the hwi binary that you extracted.1. just installed the bitcoin core v.22 full node on mac Big Sur, but can't connect my Trezor with the UI. can some experts please advise how to install the HWI, currently when I create a new wallet the option for "external signer" is grayed out, not an option for me to use my trezor with In your bitcoin.conf, add signer=<path> where <path> is the path to the HWI binary. When you start Bitcoin Core now, you should be able to create a walle with external signer. 2. how can i find my full node .onion address so i can use an electrum server with my own node remotely? You can use the getnetworkinfo RPC. If you have enabled hidden service creation, getnetworkinfo will have your onion address listed in localaddresses.Title: Re: bitcoin core full node V.22 HWI configuration for mac to work with Trezor Post by: DaveF on April 26, 2022, 08:44:42 PM There is also mynode http://mynodebtc.com that has a per-configured virtual machine that runs under Oracles Virtual Box.
TOR is a premium feature that will cost you $99 BUT since it's running as a VM on your Mac you don't have to shell out the money for any more hardware. @NeuroticFish did a write-up on how to do it under the WSL and Debian, should not be that hard to adapt it for a Mac: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5367296.0 -Dave |
